Vitsebsk inhabitants: We feared that the blast would blow our windows out
Some inhabitants of the building next to the Vitsebsk KGB even thought that the war had started.
Human right defender from
the Belarusian Helsinki Committee Pavel Levinau has told Euroradio about this.
Levinau: "I managed to talk to the inhabitants of the
house who live on the ground floor. They told me it was a horrible blast, the
blast wave reached their windows but the windows survived. An elderly lady even
said she thought that the war had started".
The HR defender found out nothing about the three people detained for the
blast. Levinau says he tried to appoint a meeting with the local KGB
administration in order to find out whether the detainees needed legal or
medical aid, but in vain.
